When your dog comes sticking firmly seated way against your legs, you can see a simple sign of affection. No doubt, but also our companions come to find a form of self-massage , which is good for their health. Japanese word shiatsu means “finger pressure” and “put the finger on it’, to stimulate self-healing of the body forces.

A goal that you can reach by exerting pressure and releases along the routes of the meridians, organs and their main functions. This approach includes the psychic dimension, since each Meridian is associated with emotion (liver: anger, kidney: fear…). A trained practitioner feels, by the Pat-downs, the quality of energy circulating on these routes.

By more or less supported pressures, it will streamline, boost the circulation of the energy.

The massage supports a healing process by strengthening the immune system and relieving pain, stimulating blood circulation in a wounded member and by reducing the membership of fibrous tissue that make the animal suffer. Weak kidneys and heart are refreshed by a better blood circulation which helps to eliminate toxins and to better assimilate the nutrients they need.

The massage improves the mobility of old dogs, especially in the morning (it is hard to stand up!), decreases the intensity of the spasms, which include nausea (related to drug treatments, anesthesia and diseases) and vomiting. Even mental disorders (loss of a ‘friend’ dog, fears, etc.) can be treated. First by the effect of the technique on the nervous system; but also through the concrete, affectionate link, that this practice creates between a dog and his human.
